"There are countless horrible things happening all over the world and horrible people prospering, but we must never allow them to disturb our equanimity or deflect us from our sacred duty to sabotage and annoy them whenever possible." -Auberon Waugh

Horror in Oregon

We offer our prayers for the souls of those who were killed by a crazed shooter in Oregon today, and for the healing of the injured.

I wish President Pretend would just keep his big mouth shut. Guns are not the problem, and if we have a higher gun-murder rate than some of the rest of the world, it's because we have triple the population of most of the other nations, and we have a very large population of violent young black men. People love to argue statistics, but they ignore that murder in the Middle East now makes downtown Chicago look like a Sunday stroll (and that's saying a lot), and they ignore that Switzerland, which required every one of its citizens to be armed, has a murder rate that's almost zilch.

Amen, brother! And remind people that this was not a random act. It was a cold, planned attack by a monster who targeted victims for being Christian.

Monsters will continue to exist. There is no way to eradicate them. Monsters must be eliminated wherever and wherever. Why is it we promote self-defense classes so women can feel safe on the street, but don't promote self-defense for everyone, especially in settings such as this? The students had overwhelming odds in their favor.

As usual, Barry states something and it becomes the truth. Even Fox's Harris Faulkner (Outnumbered), and Senator Jeff Mehley parroted Barry. Of course, the latter is a Democrat, so he had to. (BTW, his staffer at the Eugene office is a arse.) There were NOT 45 incidents this year. FBI statistics for 1950-2013: 28 incidents with 8 or more people. There is a piece at reason.com that gives good statistic from a study done be a criminologist at University of Minnesota. With the read.
